What the gurus are saying

Gurus agree hyaluronic acid is an effective hydrating ingredient, especially when paired with emollients, occlusives, and other humectants for sustained moisture. For dermal fillers specifically, the concern is longevity and placement: HA fillers last longer than FDA labeling suggests, and when injected shallow rather than deep on bone, they can migrate to the skin surface and cause swelling over time.

"Find a moisturizer that contains ceramide, shea butter, cocoa butter, glycerine, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide. All this helps in moisturizing the skin for a long time. You need something that has emollients, occlusives and also humectants. Humectants tends to pull water to the surface of the skin and plump the skin up."

I Dissolved My Filler...AGAIN! Ultrasound-Guided Filler Dissolving Process
"HA filler has lasted a lot longer than what FDA has stamped on the box. After dissolving twice I felt like that was a lot. We went deep with it too, like the cannula really was in there, they were trying to dissolve everything. What makes it last even after all that, twice?"

"You replace that with dermal filler, it with hyaluronic acid, and you get a more refreshed look. Back in even 3, 4 years ago we used to be using more softer gels within the area, so the hyaluronic acid filler used to be soft, light, and fluffy as well as moldable, and the best place to inject it is deeper down on bone so it doesn't draw in so much moisture. But we know as time goes by, because this area moves a lot, the filler can move up to the surface of the skin and then you can get this kind of swelling within that area, and that's what you sometimes see with patients."
